Review Centre: Brass / Oompah / Marching Bands

"Brass Junkies played at our wedding and were more than we could have hoped for. The amount of people that commented on just how good the band was, both on the evening itself and for weeks after, was quite something! We really can’t thank them enough for their professionalism and their help, through the madness of organising a wedding I felt the band were the one thing I wasn’t worried about and I really appreciated it. It was the greatest and we won’t ever forget it. Thanks so much. "

"Brass Bad Boys came to the Dublin Castle, Town and owned the room. Their big bold brass explosion of sound captivated the audience and had people up and dancing from the get go, even though they were performing an early evening support slot. In fact, no names, no pack drill, they blew the headliners off stage! The BBB format is a bunch of brilliant players getting their hands (and mouthes!) on contemporary pop and urban bangers and deftly turning them into irresistible, sassy soul jazz jams. Take their version of the massive Skrillex tune 'Bangarang' ...in the BBB version the stricture of the original dubstep electro template is stretched and shaken until it's almost hidden melody and funky groove is revealed. Net result- Dancing, broad grins and happy punters. A great night out. "

"Wow, what a brilliant performance. They turned up well before the funeral, played in pouring rain and lifted our hearts. I know my husband would have LOVED IT! and everyone told us with a smile how unique it was. I cannot thank them enough and would high recommend them to anyone"

"Thank you Big Smoke Brass for making our wedding so special. We wanted to find a band who did something a bit different, and who could play to a wedding crowd without being too ‘cheesy’. I’m so glad they were able to make our wedding in Wales; they were incredible. From the start, they were flexible about what songs we wanted them to play and were quick to respond - all while being amazing musicians who I’d love to see play all over again. They really judged the mood of the evening and both of their sets were brilliant. Everyone left the evening wanting to know who the band were, how we found them...or wanted to pick up a tuba and start learning. Thank you, thank you! "

"These guys really know how to entertain. They’ve got it all. The music is tight. The entertainment value and energy they provide to any venue is second to none. If you want a successful event, the Oompah Stompers are a must. I enjoyed all of their performance at the Bierhaus in Bangor and recommend them to you. I can’t wait to see them again. You can catch them on Friday and Saturday nights in the near future I believe. 10 out of 10 stars from me. "

"We had an amazing experience with The Vibe who I booked to perform at our work Christmas party. They performed a really great mix of music, really fun to watch perform, and got the whole room dancing. Communication with Emily in the run up to the event was great. They came early and were really prepared and did multiple sets over the space of 3hrs. Would highly recommend if you need a band that is going to bring THE VIBE to your party!"

"We had Deep Down Brass play at our wedding in the evening and it was the best decision we have ever made! They are absolutely incredible performers, had pretty much everyone in the venue singing and dancing and every person after the wedding has commented on how much fun they were! Their repertoire is great it covers so many genres so it’s bound to get everyone dancing, and they really know how to work the crowd to get everyone energised. We particularly loved the brass-led conga line and when the band mingled and danced with people whilst playing! Prior to the wedding talking to Ben to organise was just so easy, he was really responsive and helpful. Would also just like to say that as well as being incredibly talented brass players these guys just seem like great people, and we absolutely loved them! There seriously are not enough good words to say about them, my best advice is to book them now!!!"

"Hot Rock Brass Band were simply amazing and really lifted our wedding into party mode when they started playing. They were incredibly flexible and even did their first set outside whilst the tables were being cleared indoors, which led to a rather romantic dance under a setting sun. Once indoors the dance floor instantly filled with people swirling and stomping - it was a tremendous atmosphere."

It was a joy to play for such a happy bunch of people! Thank you, Graham

"The band performed at the finishing area of the Big Fun Walk, North London Hospice’s biggest event, and we would definitely book them again. They created a celebratory atmosphere playing uplifting and energetic tunes which everybody loved. Phil was incredibly helpful, professional and easy to work with which makes all the difference when managing a large event. All of the musicians played with great skill, energy and sensitivity to the occasion and location. Our walkers, staff and even tourists who happened to be passing by, were tapping their feet and smiling in the bank holiday sunshine during their sets. We look forward to hopefully working with them again in the future."
